Abstract :
The process flow of general automobile assembly and the production characteristic were analyzed in order to feed material timely & properly in the mixed model general automotive assembly shop. Three kinds of material were classified in accordance to different shape. Material pull systems and the kanban flow were developed in the condition of JIT production. The Andon system of material based on field-bus was established. How to deal with material by general assembly line when that was in min/max was presented on the base of analyzing alarm condition. The function module and software architecture based on J2EE of material management information system of the mixed model general assembly line were developed according to the material demand of actual automobile assembly shop. The material information system has been put into practice in an assembly enterprise
